shocking, she isn't even smart about it. Momma didn't raise her right. You squeeze every bit of that political motivation out of those dollars.

Republicans will praise Ted Cruz for flying to Cancun because he's "not using the emergency resources" but when AOC raises actual money to help people (for political reasons or otherwise) she is still the bad guy. Amazing how that works.

only thing is....who (not from this forum) is actually complaining about it?

Or raise the money for one thing and then keep like Steve Bannon and Trump. These are Special's role model.

I never said what she did was wrong. I literally said, "good to raise money for Texas" yet we have this narrative that I'm completely against it.

while saying that I said this was a political agenda, to turn Texas blue, backed up by her own damn words.

I also haven't supported Cruz for leaving. he deserves any criticism he gets.

Dinesh D'Souza stated how it was good of Ted to leave Texas so as to not use resources that could be used by the needy. That his going to Cancun was a net positive.

lol, well Ted leaving the country IS a net positive...they just shouldn't keep letting him back in, they need to pull a Randy Quaid on him

What this proves is that AOC not only has a huge nyc following but a national one because rarely can somebody raise that kind of money real fast.

Schummer better hope she does not primary him in 2022.

Good call. Wonder who is giving them money and in what amount. Just the speed of reaching that amount suggests some heavy hitters are involved. Wasn't Beto involve as well?

I dunno, I know other house members were, some that represent Texas.

Beto was doing other things I believe, like calling on seniors and making sure they had food and a warm place to go to.

maybe AOC should be doing more to help people in, say, New York. she could be raising money for the families of people that died because of Andrew Cuomo.

---

No, I just dismissed that you actually meant it.

I guess we can add helping others to the heinous and terrible crimes AOC has committed.

of course, you do this a lot. you don't care what I said, you conclude whatever you want regardless.

the bottom confirms that even after I said it was good for her, not heinous and terrible. but you don't care because you want to believe something different.

She's no threat to primary Schumer. Anyone who believes that needs to reconsider the thought ASAP.

Yeah, what they said about her last opponent. Matter of fact, this past primary show a few old establishment guys be tossed over for the new. Go to any young people bar and ask about Schumer and AOC and see who gets the most play.

I would love to see it. It isn't like Schumer has moved any mountains lately for the small folks.

I don’t think her last primary opponent was getting 4-1 positive poll numbers.

We will see, the Biden-Pelosi-Schummer rule is still young. Didn't the democrat lose a few seats in the House?
